New Morning... New Wake Up Call

So yesterday it was the sweet little Carolina Wren singing we woke to, but, this morning was another story. Someone was in a bad mood I'd say. It was 7:10 am and we hear kee-ahh, kee-ahh, kee-ahh. I grab my camera and then go back for my pants, lol, and head on out the front door to find this beauty on my neighbors rooftop across the street. There he was overlooking Derexa Pond as the sun is just rising. Still mad as a hornet, squawking that territorial call. I hear the Cardinals making their soft little noises to each other and I look up and see mama cardinal on the tip top of the oak tree peeking over at him. I am sure he can see her too, it's a direct view, but, I positioned myself in the middle of them so nothing was gonna go down in front of me... not if my life depended on it.
